31. 10 People Who Did Not Finish

Welcome to track #31 I'll finish what you started. Honour his father. OK, Next one obey. Obey is different from honour. Next one is what? Do what? You see what? All right, next one. Believe in your what? OK, next one, 10 people who did not finish their ministries. Hey #1 Dimas, having loved this present world, pursued the whole church and went somewhere else. Tell your name, but that will not be your story. Next one, Judas, why did Judas lose the ministry? Disloyalty #3 Lucifer why did Lucifer not finish his ministry? Disloyalty, Pride, isn't it #4 Joyce, the king of Israel. Why did he not finish his ministry? Did not believe in the prophetic word, did not take it seriously. Next one number one, number 5 is who? Elijah's first servants. He did not finish his ministry. Why? Elah. He he he allowed himself to be separated. He did not receive Elijah as a father. Isn't it because if you had received him as a father, he would have stayed with him forever? Is that not so? Yeah. But because he did not allow to not receive him as a father, he could dispose of him. Because a servant does not abide in the house forever. But as son abides forever. Next one number one sex is what Lot's wife. Lot's wife did not finish her ministry. As I said, Lot's wife, she was coming out of. You can sit down if you want to. I don't know why. Who told you to stand? Genesis chapter 19, verse 20, verse 25 And he overthrew those cities. Verse 24 And the Lord reigned upon Sodom and Gomorrah, brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven. And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain and all the inhabitants of the cities, that and that which grew up on the ground. But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt. Amen. There are some stories that are fantastic and difficult to even understand and believe, but because Jesus mentioned them, they have received certain credence which they wouldn't have otherwise had. So this story is just like the story of Jonah and the will. It's something that Jesus mentioned and because of that it is believed to be true. Jesus did mention Lord's wife and he said remember Lord's wine. Remember people who look back. You see, if we are going to do well and finish what we started, we need to never look back. There is a logical forward movement. Sometimes when you started something, you might as well go ahead with it. Don't look back and freeze. Amen. We've got to finish what we started. Godwin. Is it Godwin first? Gideon. Godwin, Where is your husband? Is where OK, God will bring him with. The point that I'm trying to make is that if you've come so far as been able to come to a camp, how many have come to a camp for a first time? Raise your hand. This is your first time, Yes. How many have come to a camp? More than this is the second time. OK, that time, 4th time, first time again, good. If you've come so far as to come for a camp, what are you looking back again for? Do you get it? If you've come so far as to be a shepherd, what are you looking back again for? Why are you looking backwards? If you've come so far as to be a lay minister, what are you coming? What are you looking back again at? If you've come so far as to be a pastor, a lay pastor, why are you looking backwards away from becoming a full time minister? Why do you look back? Because forward lies only one thing, the logical conclusion of the road you are walking on. If you are going up the stairs, you know the stairs, the staircase, and you say I don't want to go up. Why do you walk on the stairs, the steps when you are saying you will not go upstairs? So don't look back, look forward, look ahead. There's one logical conclusion. Looking back will confuse you. Amen. Looking back will frighten you. Looking back will unsettle you. Looking back will make you unsure of what you are doing and as soon as you become a little unsure the enemy will strike you. One day I was in a laboratory with a certain man and a certain snake. A big Viper. Yes. And the man opened the top of the lid where the snake was big fat. The snake head was like this. Now is it? When you are doing something like that, you must not make any mistake. You cannot look back. You are coming to hold a snake or do something with a very dangerous animal which if it bites you now there's no medicine in the country to cure you. The man put his hand in there and he held the snake and he lifted the head of the Viper as he was holding and showing us the teeth, the fans and he put it down the thing and just for flush, just in a flash it just sucks and they put it down and he put the snake away and he was now worried. He was our teacher in medical school. Hey, there are certain things when you are doing, even if you are not sure, continue to do it in a very sure way. When you make any mistake, huh, you get it. You will be surprised that it will cost you everything because of a little little little change in your confidence level and a little change in your sureness of what you are doing. It will cost you. You see, there are missionaries we have sent to certain countries who came back and told us we cannot enter. And there are others who went to the same place and came and said we can enter. It is a good land. There's a certain strength that is needed to do ministry. You have Amery force with strength you cannot look at. Kind of partly. Should I, Should I not? Should I? Should I not? Should I, Should I not like Lord's wife? You are going forward you are looking back you are going forward you are looking back you are going forward you are looking back you are going forward You are looking back. You are going forward, something's going to happen to you. Hey, you can easily change your mind because of the difficulties that you meet. So I want to encourage you. You've taken a step to take God seriously, to be in the ministry, to become a minister. There is one logical conclusion and you need to move on that road with strength. I have learned at different times of my life to be strong, very strong, the strongest so far, I've realized that without a setting determination. You know what I said missionaries to please. I know that somebody could die on the mission field. Do you know that? Yeah, Because people die. But I decided to be strong. Very strong. Yeah. I I I'm not afraid Anything could happen, but I'm not thinking about that. But things happen everywhere. You don't go anywhere. So you, you have to make your mind in a second way. 1st when I used to employ people, I was not sure whether I was giving them good conditions. I reached a point where I became strong. I say, you know what, this is what we have, you like it, you stay, if you don't like it, go. That's it. And I became stronger and I was able to move forward. And then after some time, I realized that ultimately we what we have is even better than a lot of imagine imaginary things that people seem to have and that the people that are working with me, I'm more blessed. And many of these imaginary jobs mention a big name on a big St. What do you have? What do you have what I don't have? Don't bring yourself Amen. So be strong. Tell somebody be strong, otherwise you'll not finish what you started. Used to spend my whole life trying to figure me out, blaming everybody but me and I used to love to listen to people talking about Inside Remedy. Just kept from trying. But it does if it not change. Seems like all the answers to what I wanted to be ever like to leave. It's when I came to Jesus. Tired of that kind of life, I asked him just what to do. Said we're starting over, no more looking tight. The answer is not in you. This is the beginning of what I want to be. He's changing me completely every day. I can teach Jesus. So finish what you started in. I like what I see. Finish what you started in. Lean on 'cause I die. I love to do with me. I love to do it in me. I love it so finish once you start it in me. I like what I see. Finish once you start it in little 'cause I love. I love what you do within me. Oh yes, I do whatever. I love it. What to do with me? This is the beginning of what I want to be. He's changing me completely every day. I can see cheese eyes. It's working in me. So finish once you start heading. I like what I see. Finish once you start heading it on 'cause I love, I love what you do when you need. Oh, I do, I do, I do, I do. I love it. What to do and see? Hey so brothers and sisters let us not look back. What we have started is to the end, how many are going to be old men and women with me in the ministry, elderly brothers and sisters who can even sleep in church because of because of your age. Just adjust yourself. Let the young ones preach. You just said there is there is no shame. I've been here for 47 years. In the year 2068, you said, look, in the year 2009, I was at a camp meeting. Can you imagine how many camps I've been to since 2009 to 2068? Hey, 2016, where will you be? Where will I be? We will be where we are determining now. That's where we will be. We are determining where we will be now by the chances we have now. I do mean you are going to look back at a place of sin. Some of you, the things you've left, you can't look back. How many used to play boyfriends and girlfriends? Raise your hand. Hey, are you going to go back there? Are you going to go back there? You know when you have little children, you play Cowboys and Indians, mummy and daddy, police and thief. Some of you used to play boyfriend and girlfriend. Hey, you were grown up with breast and everything. You were playing boyfriend and girlfriend messy. You can't go back, you can't go back, you can't go back. You can't give up. You got to you got to press on you. Are you tired of singing police? Come on, there will be mountains that I will have to climb, and there will be battles that I will have to fight. Victory or defeat, it's up to me to decide. But how can I expect to win if I never try? I. I just can't keep up now. I've come too far to. God, from there I started from nobody told me to run. It's me say and I don't believe he's won't be this fault to. Live. He never said there wouldn't be trials. I never said I won't. He never said that. Everything to go the way I want it to go home. I want all but. When my back is against the wall, when I feel like hope is long, I'll just it's my head up to the sky. I'll say help me to be stronger. Go home. Look, if Lot's wife, I'd have somebody to sing this song, she will be still moving by now. She did not have anybody to sing this song. She didn't even know the words of the song, and she was just about to give up now. Oh, and go back into the arms of Rambo. You're for my boyfriend, you're for my boyfriend, and you're for my girlfriend who has taken away your life and your strength, who has injected you with HIV, which you have not yet diagnosed. Hey, on which you are not sure whether you've diagnosed? Where are you going back to? You see, people don't understand why Lord's wipe was looking back. Same evil. Look, if you want to go forward, just look ahead with strength. Strength. No turning back when we're going to start the church. Bishopsaki was discussing with myself. We should start the church at a town called Insawam so that people will not see us in case it doesn't work. But in the end, we started it right there where people could see. That made us even more desperate that we have to finish it. But people wanted to laugh at us. People want to laugh at you. They want to prove that you were wrong. Did I tell you of a little boy who said it cannot be that the old man is always right? And he said I'm, I'm making it my aim to prove at least once that this old man is not right. At least once, hey, there are people who want to show that you are not right to join this church. They want to prove that it was not right for you to come to the mission field. They are what they want to. They want to prove it. How many realize that? Yes, now we are going to disprove them in Jesus name. I said in Jesus name. Can you give up at this time? Are you looking back at your S Africans? How many realize that you could easily have HIV? Raise raise your hand. How many have committed fornication before? Oh please, up to this stage of the camp, you haven't told any lies. What are you doing now at the end of the camp? Don't look back. How many of you have committed fornication before? Better. So now. Now. Now there is no shame. Hey sister, your coffee is very bitter. Change it, please. Police. Thank you, Police. Are you there? Are you, are you going to go back to a possible HIV infection now? What are you looking back for? You've come into the church like this challenge now, dear. It's all the way to the top. Yeah. It's not something that you are coming to play around to discover. No, no, no. You can't look back. You can't give up. It's not going to be easy. Don't expect it to be easy. We got to go on and on and on and on and on. We're going to cry sometimes. We're going to suffer sometimes, but we're going to make it. We're going to make it. We are making it in Jesus name. All the things we have said, a lot of them are prophecies. God is going to do them, is going to do more. I want more, I want more, I want more. Do you want more? Then why are you looking back? What are you looking at again? What's the logical conclusion? Everybody say logical conclusion. What is the logical conclusion of the road you are on now? Is the logical conclusion is ahead forwards, ever ever forwards. No turning back, no deviation. God has input words in your mouth to be able to preach. Let us continue on that line. I speak the words, I speak the words. God has put churches on our hearts. Wow, where are my PE children? Come, come, come, come there. The dancing ones and all the other non dancers also. You are also children. Look, come, come and stand up here, children. Come up, Come up. Turn around. Is it not beautiful? Oh, these were sinners. I could have been dead. They could have been dead. You know, I I never even knew that there was a town called Port Elizabeth. Where are they? I could have been dead sleeping in. My room, all these could have been dead. But God blessed me to steal another day, and even when I did a wrong, he was still there. I'm so glad that God still here. I seen a spread. I'm so glad that God still here. Look, I didn't know anybody in Port Elizabeth and up till today I've not been to Port Elizabeth, but I have my I can call, I can call Daniel my son, I can call Della my daughter. What do you have qualified to be called Tata? What what do you have to do #1 is what resemble? Yes. Also started. I've started a church before. They have also. They have also started a church before from zero. When I say zero, I mean zero. Look at them. Give the Lord. I could have been. Dead. Special dances. I want to see the slow motion. Hey, brother. But God blessed me to see another. Day. Come on. Another day. And even when I did it wrong, he was still there. Still there. I'm so glad that God still his still the spray. So glad that God still. Is it not nice? What about those in Mafia King and and Saint Peter, Marisburg and Georgetown and Kingstown and where they're also, they're just like this one, nice ones like this, waiting to be redeemed by the blood of the lamb, waiting to be washed, waiting to be brought in. We have come up to Portales. Why? What are we looking back to? Where? Come on, we got to rise and say we're going forward. Only all these ones could have gone back to hell. But now, yes, show us that you are from PE. Come on, show. US. One other day, even when I didn't work, he was still there. Yeah. I'm so glad to go up and give me a stealing spread. Yeah, I'm so glad to God. Still the Sinner. Spread. Give your body. Come on. I walked to the church I on a Sunday morning. Hey. Stood outside contemplating. All of these they were contemplating. Walk through the. Door. I walk through the door A. Lot of folks knew that from way back in. People hold them to me. All those passes that I know, but I've seen all I've seen, and they're all waiting for us. They're. Waiting for us. But I'm the lie that I'm here to tell the story that I'm going to be there, that I sleeping in my way for your soul. But God bless me to see. Oh yeah, another day. 01 more day. Yeah, Pasta is teaching them how to dance. Come on now. Let him cast the first stone, because there ain't nobody better for the bats sitting on the world now. It's about time for us, sister. It's about time, I said. It's about time. Stop acting holy out of thou. Come on, I'll lift it up. Your brother. I've seen all I've seen. I'm waiting for you to. Wait, but. I'm the love that. I'm here until I was born. All day I'm going to win. Sleep in my brain. God gets me to see another day, just one day. Wait today. Today is Friday. Friday morning, where would they have been today? Where would they have been today? Friday morning, Look at them here. It is not a good thing. Oh, we go to a town, We didn't know anybody there, not even one person. And today look at them here in the church. My. Grave. Would have been in my grave. Maybe this would have been a grave. Maybe this would have been his grave. Look at that jump in here. It's motherless. They are redeemed. I've been saved by the block. I could not be dead. They could not be dead because somebody, somebody, somebody said I go. It's not been easy to go into this town. It's not been easy, but it's worth it to see them dancing like this. To see them dancing like this, it's worth it too. Is there any other town left in this country? I'm asking you a question. I say, is there any other place with nice people just like this? So what is the logical conclusion? Are we going to stay in one place and start praising ourselves? And so yes, yes, you are nice, you are nice. I want more, I want more, I want more. We want more, we want more. I don't past this. I'm so glad. God till he's a Sinner spirit, I'm so glad. I'm so mad, I'm so glad. I'm so glad. I'm so glad. I'm so glad. Oh, oh, I'm so glad. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm so glad. Yeah, yeah. I'm so glad God still in the still spread hell. I'm so glad, I'm so glad. I'm so glad God still here. Love, love, love. Believe me, Believe me. You see, I remember when this one was a leader in the university. Little girl, you see, it's not easy to marry. Travel away from your country, have a child struggle, but still Amari force. Tell somebody. Amari force. Amari force means by force. Amari force to be in the thing. And he's teaching them to dance. Yeah. They love her. See, it's not that. It's like you're, you're, you're, you're. Yeah. It is something is spiritual. Is it not fantastic? Is it not fantabola artistic? This, I'm this. I'm just trying to encourage you to believe me and tell there are people that will listen to you. Yes, You don't have to be ashamed if God has made you Noah, One person said. I don't want to be Noah, I'm tired of sending birds which don't come. But one of the advantages of being Noah is that you have seven members. Even if they are 7 members, it is worth it. Oh, I'm I'm happy to see them, but I know that this is only 7% of the things in South Africa and in these areas God has more. I want more, I want more, I want more, I want more. Do you want more? Do you want more branches? Yes. Now PE was not a place to get a job but to go as a full time because there was no job there. They have struggled to try to find jobs and what have you. There's nothing but these people are worth anything you think you are worth. You think you are worth or you you wish they wouldn't have come. Where would you have been? Even at their young age they have seen certain things. Tabo, tabo, tabo. Even at their age they have seen certain things. And much more if you allow them a big few more years without Christ. We're not being too late. So don't be. Don't be tired. That's why we started. We can't give up. We can't. Just can't give up. Can we give up now? Can we look back? Oh, I've come too far from. Where started? We've come to fight South Africa, hey. Nobody told me the road would be and I don't. Believe. Listen. I want to beg you on behalf of the souls that are in South Africa. Beg you. They, they, they are begging. Please go. Please come. Please go to where they are. They, they are calling this. They will beg. You don't stop, don't go back. They are begging. They said we don't want to go to hell. We wouldn't have come to hell if we had known. Are you listening? Please. They are begging, they are crying. Come, come to us. We are also human beings. We are not ghosts. We also like God. We may not live in Johannesburg, We are. We are also human beings. Give us a chance to also be saved, to also come to a camp. We beg you to know God, to know the joy of the Lord. We are begging you. I'm speaking on behalf of unbelievers who have not seen before. We are begging. Please come, please support, please help, please go in Jesus name. How many are going to listen to what the Lord is saying? We can't give up. Now put your hands together for the wonderful. I just can't give up now. I've come too far from where I started from. Nobody told me the road though, it's busy and I don't believe it's from me this far. To me, he never said there wouldn't be drives. He never said I'll hold and fall. He never said that everything but go the way I want it to go. But when my back is against the wall, when I feel like hope is lost, I'll just lift my head up to the side. I'll say help me to be strong. I just can't be. Let your beats be to finish the work of God. One soul should be so nice to you. So precious to you. Just one soul. One soul should be very Yeah. Just one come the first. The first one. Just one come with your Bible 01 soul should be precious. Stand here. One soul should be precious. Just one like this. It should mean everything to you. It is a soul. A soul is a soul. Oh just one like this. Everything in the world is worth this person. Jesus said what a man give in exchange for his soul or or or what shall it profits a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? This is a soul. So what can a person give in exchange for a soul? What can there be to exchange for this? There's nothing that can be exchanged for just a soul. One, you must start to love souls. As I see the souls. I am so happy you know something and it's worth it. I'm ready to become war so that I can go everywhere that I need to go. Yeah, I'm ready to fight again. I'm ready to encourage. That's why I'm here, because the Lord is saying don't be tired. Don't be tired. Don't be tired of fighting. It's worth it. It's worth just one person, one suit, just one person. It's worth anything that we are doing here if we have spent 20,000 U.S. dollars to be here to this one is worth it. That's Christ estimate of a soul. I preach a message called Christ estimate of a soul. The whole world is worth one just one of this how much more 2 The second one should come. Second soul should come. She's worth it. If one soul is the whole world is worth one soul, then the second soul on the road is worth 2 of the whole wide world. From New York to Toronto to Alaska to Johannesburg to Papua New Guinea to Auckland to Sydney and Australia, It's worth times 2 for these two. It's worth your life. It's worth your career. If you don't know it's worth your career, it's worth the money you are going to earn and you are earning. It's worth it. It's worth everything I'm telling you. It's worth it, worth your life. It's worth your life. Your whole life is worth. Your life has changed for this. And when you get to heaven, you will see that what I'm telling you today, you will wish you had one source more. You wish, you say, my God, Michael, I should have done this more, more, more. Why did it die? Why? I should have done more. We will see it when we get to heaven. All these things I'm saying, they are all only valuable when you think about heaven. And those of you in being, there's more to be done. Amen. And the pastors who were sent there, they are not perfect. They're not perfect. They also have problems, issues, all kinds of things. Now, you see, God says you love me. I love you want me to work for you. You want to work? Yeah. God doesn't have a lot of people who won't like him. Well, you have so few people who like him. Oh, suddenly that's that's why you see God laughs, thieves, maid dresses all kinds of people, he lies them, but a lot of people don't want to work for God. Few people want to work for him. So when you get somebody who wants to work for me very happy. That's that's how can you find some of the characters who are here today in the ministry? Yes, yes, this. How can some of us are here? We smokers, thieves, drug artists, fornicators, liars, thieves, Oh we are all here. A lot of people don't like God and a lot of people don't want to work for God. You get only one person who likes God and one person who wants to work. You think God will release the person? If the person has any kind of fault or problem, God will look as if he hasn't seen a lot of music God uses. Why are people to be preaching? You think God hasn't? God hasn't used his own standards to measure his own ministers. Yeah, that's why a pastor. You cannot be too melancholic when a pastor is very melancholy. Your church cannot go. You can't be too strict with people. This one's wrong. This is right now to the left. Face the wall. Come do this. You can't do that. Notice? No, no, no, no, no. If you do this, you can't sit at the back, sit at the front. Don't. Hey, if you are too melancholic, you can't have anybody because the people are Even after we are saying it's not easy for us to do the right thing. How many realize it's not easy for you to do the right thing after salvation Before it was I mean automatic and after it's not easy fish. So when God gets just one person, one person says I like I like God, I like God, I like God, I like God, I like his work. Then God say, OK, OK, I like him too. I like her. Wow, that's our kind of ladies are going to be preaching because because a lot of the men don't like God, but a lot of the ladies like God. I like God, I like God. I want more. I like God to use their ladies. They see them working for God. You'll be surprised. So ladies rise up. It's worth it. 1 of this, it's worth it. It's worth it. Is it not worth it? Look at their faces carefully, You realize that. Is it not worth it? Look at their faces carefully. Wow, is it worth it? Just one of them is worth it. So let's say this one was not there. We just have this one. It's worth it then, if we have this one, too. More #3 that one has come to us more. More has come, and more and more and more. It's worth it. Is it worth it? I'm going to preach more. Look, each of you is a church room. One day there was a certain young girl. She was living in the house with her mother and there was no food in the house and they were all hungry. So she decided to go into the forest to look for more food, money job. As she walked into the forest she saw a big house and she went to ask for a job. Can I have a job? Can I have something to do? When they looked ahead and said, OK, you can work, clean the whole house. So she started working in the house, cleaning the house, sweeping. She did so many things, this and that and that, and the people were watching her. At the end of her work, she came to this place in the sitting room where she should now take the carpet out and then clean that place. But she was tired. She was tired. So she looked at it and she said ah, let me just sweep, let me just swap around and leave the carpet. So she wiped around and she said ah finished and she went to sleep. As she was lying down in her bed, suddenly she said, oh, my conscience, I didn't really finish because I didn't take the carpet. So she was in bed in the night and she said let me go. And she went back to the sitting room in the night and she took the carpet. When she took the carpet, under the carpet was 12 gold coins. So she saw the gold coins, she put them together, and then the next day she took to the owners of the house. I, I found this. And they smiled and said, oh, that was your salary. If you hadn't cleaned that place, you didn't have had your salary. If she hadn't finished, she wouldn't have had those gold coins, the 12 gold coins, yes. So some of us, we have already gone to lie in our beds and our consciences are not worrying us. Our consciences are not worrying us. But it's time for our conscience to worry us so that we will rise up even in the middle of the night and say I, I didn't finish. I must finish and go in to the last part that you didn't finish and right there is your reward. They just like this is your salary. If you hadn't cleaned that place, you wouldn't have been paid. Hey, what have you done so far? Peter Godwick, Manla, Dennis, all of you guys, Daniel, he must become afraid. Maybe there is a place. You see, I would never have seen certain things in my ministry if I have not continued when I first started to preach this book. Mega Church 25 Reasons why he must have a mega church I started. I always preach in camp like this. 25 reasons. Number one, so that you have more members. So #2 so that there'll be more souls #3 so that there'll be more husbands and wives #4 so that there'll be more prayer. Number 50. I've preached to my people, but God had a day where I would preach the same message and it would yield me gold coins. Yeah. And it happened. I preached with my camp for a long time. I cleaned the whole house and there was this one part was coming up. It was coming up. It was the last thing. And one day I was invited. I was not invited because I was. I was, I was not invitable. But somebody, he had kidney stones. He was invited to speak and he developed kidney stones. When I see him, I, I, I enjoy him. I say, well, your sickness was very good for me. His sickness that he had, he could not speak. So young Gicho asked his his secretary to ask me whether I will speak. So I said, yeah, I'll speak. Who is taking my volume? AG Police. Look, take him out. Take him out. Hey, to wait, to wait. He's sorry. Let this be your last. Hey, hello. What's taking my volume? Hey, hey, hey, what was I telling you? Kidney stones. The same job was going to give me some gold coins and so I was asked to speak and I took the same method. I'm preaching to you here. Same message, same same. And I paid 25 reasons why you must have a mega church secretary told me that was the best message for the whole church group. Since then, every year, whether it's Japan here, America, last year I went what I preach, you see the loyalty message, I preach, I preach. They say I held my book, the same book and I preach gold coins. After I was sitting down, they took an offering. All the offering they took over $30,000. They say, oh, we want to surprise so and so to give to him, to help him in his church planting. They just presented it to me. So if I stop preaching this loyalty, if I stopped, do you understand I wouldn't get to the place where I see the gold coins? So there's a reward that comes at a certain point, but it doesn't come at the beginning, that is at the end of the reward is yes. So you see this little thing we do is look at nothing, look like nothing. Look, it's very important. This show winning windows of 12345 to the church, church. One day there will be a church we will start. We will say, hey, what about if we had never started this particular church? Maybe there is Billy Graham or Reinhardt Monkey in one of the churches in South Africa, the greatest man of God ever to live in the next 50 years, and he's in one branch. He's going to come out of one branch from somewhere and he will always attribute it to what you did. So that's the maybe that's the Golden coin church. Hey, wow. So, Briders and sisters, we got to finish what we started. What has began has got to end. Otherwise we will not see what we need to see. Amen. OK, police. Amen. How many people do you have who did not finish #7 Absalom. Absalom did not finish his life as a Prince and maybe a king in Second Samuel chapter 14 the Bible says. But in all Israel there was nothing to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty. Amen. From the sole of his foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him. And when he pulled his head Second Samuel 1426 for it was at every years, and that he pulled it because the hair was heavy on him, therefore he pulled it. He weighed the hair of his head as 200 shekels after the King's weight. And on to Absalom they were born three sons, 11 daughter whose name was Tamar. She was a woman of Fair countenance. Second so much after 18. Then said Joe up, I may not tarry with thee. And he took three dots in his hand and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak. And 10 young men that bared Joab's armor compassed about and smote Absalom and slew him. Amen. Absalom was somebody who did not finish his calling and his work. Amen. Why? Because he did not understand loyalty to his own father, Amen. That is why I believe that if Absalom had heard this message, why loyalty? Why he would probably still be around today. Ministry. Amen. Ask your neighbor why is loyalty important? Did Absalom know why loyalty was important? No, I don't think he really knew. Amen. So let me tell you so that you can see when you see Absalom, you can tell him when you see him in the church #1 Loyalty is important because it is the principal qualification for every minister. Amen. When I say principle, First Corinthians chapter 4 verse #2 it is required in stewards that a man be found faithful. Now in every car we have some things that are there, but not everything in your car is essential. Some cars have a fridge. Whose car has a fridge? Raise your hand. I've seen a nice Land Rover outside. Whose car is it? Land Rover the old time. Who is that NGO Police? Who is the owner of the Land Rover? He's gone, OK, He did not finish because it was at the end of the camp that he was going to be called out. He will not be called on Tuesday, on Wednesday, on Thursday, on Monday, but on Friday in the morning he will be called and become the Bishop's personal friend. Yes, of all the people here, I've not seen anybody's car except this person's car. And I said on Friday morning, where is he? I was going to ask him the things that are in his car, but I ask a fridge, CD player, television, mobile phone, inbuilt speakers and what again? Guns at the back, submarine viabilities, microwave. But how? How many people your your car doesn't have a microwave? How many people your car doesn't have a fridge? Your car doesn't have a CD player? Hey now, everybody's car has ACD player, but it's not essential. You can have a car without ACD player and a car without an air conditioner. Amen. There is no shame. There is no shame if your car does not have ACD player. You may scream, tell anybody, you may scream. But if your car does not have lights, then it has something really wrong with it. So when you are in the church and you have a lot of things but you don't have loyalty, there's something wrong with you or you have everything in your cover. You don't have a tire, one of your 4 tires, is it good? One of the things you see loyalty is like windscreen wipers. You never know that is true until it happened. You never know how important the windscreen Wi-Fi. One day I was coming from Kumasi in a rainstorm and my windscreen wipers went off. That's why. So it's one of the essential things in the car, the windscreen wipers. But I never knew till that day. We almost died on the road, the stomach, you can't see anything at all. And then he decided to work. Then he started working. Then suddenly he said I work again. Then it stopped. So we start, then stop. So you go when it's working, then stop when it's not working, when it feels like working. Some of you, you are like that. You have a lot of good qualities, but you don't have loyalty. You can sing, You Can Dance, you have a Bible, you've bought a book, but you don't have loyalty. You need loyalty. That's why we are teaching it, because if you have all those other things but you don't have loyalty, you don't have anything. Because First Corinthians 4 verse 2 says it is required. It is required. It is required that a man be found faithful or the other word is loyal. Faithful means constant. Faithful means the same constant. Usually we must be faithful in South Africa if we've been able to go to PE. We must be faithful to go to Soweto. We must be faithful to go to Mafi King. We must be faithful to go to Saint Peter Marie's bed. We must be faithful to go to Georgetown. We must be faithful to go to where? Queenstown. We must be faithful to go to where Graham's Town. We must be able to go where King William's Town. We must be able to go to where Guatema, Matatiela, Peddie. We have to be faithful. It's required. We can't give up now. We can't change. To be loyal means to be the same. When we came first and we had faith to start, we must be the same. We cannot change it. To be loyal means to be the same. One of the meaning of the word loyal is the same. You are the same, same, same. You are happy at the camp, you are happy at home. You say nice things here. You say nice things at home. You, you are have a happy face here. You have a happy face in your car. You have a good attitude here. You have a good attitude at home. That means loyalty. Everybody must know the meaning of words. The the lady, that woman from Thailand, she asked Rambo why did they send you? And she said he said because I am expendable. And she asked him what mean expendable? What mean expend? When you say a word like loyalty, you have to ask yourself what mean loyalty? It means the same. That's one of the mean. It means the same. I'm the same. I win souls when I'm young. I win souls when I'm old. I love God when I'm young. I love God when I'm old. It means I don't change. I'm constant. Another word is constant. What mean loyalty? Constant. Say it again. What mean loyalty? Constant when you are young. Look at have you seen some few Gray hairs? Yeah. Can you see them increasing? When I had no Gray hairs, I preach camps. Now I have some Gray hair. I preach camp. More camps, more camps. I preach loyalty. And I'm preaching loyalty again. I wrote this book in 1998. Yeah, I wrote this book in 1998. I want more. And I'm still writing more. More, more. If you've read it, read more. How many have understood loyalty more since you came to the camp? Loyalty means what? What mean loyalty? The same? What mean loyalty means you're the same. Yesterday, today, forever. Wow. You see you are dancing. You see your pastor was. I'm sure she's older than you. Are you older than them? Yeah. What? You see, there is no shame when you grow up. Still dance for the Lord. Why can't you? You, you can I take He was 80 years old. He used to he has to dance, old man. Dance like he was dancing, running. He used to run in his 80s. He could run from the one end of the chest like this to the other, running like how Peter was running yesterday. Some people feel that when you are mature, you, you, you, you. You have to ask yourself what mean maturity? Is maturity the same as backsliding? For some people, maturity means backsliding. I am mature, so I'm backsliding. So we are preaching loyalty because we are preaching. God wants us to be the same, the same, the same, the same. If you love God, love him more. If you go dance for him, dance for him still don't become, say I'm now mature in the church. So I've just said, you know, I'll let the young ones rejoice before the Lord whilst I am into certain things, I'm just sitting down doing certain things. It is required. I don't like you if you are beautiful but you don't have a loyalty. Yeah, I don't. I don't need you. It's essential. Yeah. What is the use of bread you cannot eat. What is the use of a car you cannot drive? If there's a Christian who does not have loyalty, what's the whole point? One day some people were going, people for healing Jesus. Who said they were going and they had this car, an American car? When they get to a point the car will stop. The car was not faithful when it was in the city. It was faithful when it got out of town. Loyalty. It was not the same. It was not constant. So one day I said we have to buy a new one, but this one is not faithful because we are now going to West Africa and countries. We are even coming to drive to East Africa and to drive down to South Africa. If I go with a destroyer car which will leave me and will not be the same when I get to Congo, Brazil and rebels are chasing me. I now need to change to second gear and 3rd gear and go very fast, faster than the rebels. I need to say, what am I going to do? I need something that is the same when I'm in the city, it is the same when I'm in the village. It's the same when there are rebels. It's the same when there are no rebels. They can go fast. Can 10 can do everything all the time. Are you listening to me? Amen. So loyalty, it's not something that is too much, one pastor said to me, Why do you teach loyalty? Loyalty is not something you teach. It's something you command. It's something that you command by your life that if you are not naturally loyal, everybody will be loyal. How many realize that as we are teaching, it is killing you softly certain things. Killing me softly, certain things, yeah. It's not something that you don't. It's something that you teach and teach and teach and teach and teach. You never have to say I have need of nothing. Yes #2 The reason why Absalom needed loyalty message was to fight the 5th column which is the column of Satan in the church. Satan who wears shoes, dresses, Amen, disguised Satan. Without this loyalty message, the Satan's in our midst will not be identified. Satan will be welcomed. You welcome, you eat with him. One day a certain pastor had a dream. He had a dream, and in the dream come. You take your black thing off. No. Uh huh. I come. No, I need it. Come. Cover your head. No. Like this. Your face, ninja. Oh, cover it properly. Help her to cover. You 2 come OK, Come jump. OK. In the dream. Actually, no, I'll do it. You go back. Go back. I'm the pastor. So in the dream he was fighting fight. I I thought you couldn't see. So she was fighting. So the pastor was fighting, he was following that. Who is this person? So as he was fighting, struggling, struggling, struggling, then he held it. He held it, the mask and then. Look at the nice person from me was a fighter, a nice person like this was against me in the church. And that person who was Anati was his own assistant pastor and he said, Hey, you, you, you see, without loyalty, you will not see the people. May you never be like that in the name of Jesus. Hey, without loyalty, you will not see the inner enemies who are, who have covered their heads and are fighting you, opposing the touch from inside. When you pick, they'll make a comment. This one is now you'll be listening and you'll be talking. Let me and I will be laughing. What's he going to say? And they are planning, they are talking. So what? You don't know what they are thinking. And so we need loyalty to fight those inner Satans who are members of the Church and who have made themselves disguised Lucifer in our midst. Without teaching on loyalty, they will be there and they will undermine, undermine mining under you. Mining under you. A building has just collapsed in one country. I think it's some part of Germany. It was Cologne or so. And they are saying that they were building a tunnel under for the new subway, the train, underground train. So they are they are thinking that it's connected to that tunnel that they they were doing under. The whole building came down. As you are building your chest, somebody is building a tunnel under. That is the IT is. And you are afraid in the church. All these people are there and you think you are the pastor, you are the leader, not knowing that all these are going on and they are mining under you. The 5th column. That's why we want when you smile at us, we know that this smile is forever Smile when you smile at this, this is true. I know you have something that is, so you come and say it openly. And I, I, I, I, I, I want, I wanted to discuss when you preach for a long time and I'm tired, what should I do? And I'll tell you there is no shame. And if you're tired, you may sleep. Amen. How many are going to join us to fight those talkings and Abdas parents in the church. So Anne, why do you take away our pastor? We are used to pastor all these years. Why do you take him away? Why? And the police? Where are you now? Look, those kind of talking, we don't appreciate it here. We don't need it here. Because if you ever become me and you are ever in my position, you will understand the need to move things around. Because you see, the church, all of us are temporary. Temporary. So we need to, it needs to be a revelation in us that all the church is for nobody. Me, I have written my will. I have written my own sign. I sign, sign, sign, sign. Other people have signed in my will. There's nothing like a church that I give the South African church to my daughter Daniela, What is she going to do with it? It's a church that will run with or without their presence or involvement. There's there's nothing like inheritance that I inherited the church to somebody, my child. The church is just running, supposed to run without what I have personally. I can give to my child, but the church is not for me personally. If the church is not for me, who I am the founder of the church, why should the church be for you who is not the founder of the church? And the police are you there? What to me? What to me? Are you listening to me? Yeah. So that is why we are preaching about how many understand why we are preaching about loyalty. If Absalom had understood that he should be loyal to his father like by now, he will be singing Finish What You thought. I like what I see. God blessed. Finish once you start. I love. I love what you do with me. 5 minutes break please. We are closing at in about an hour, so just 5 minutes if you want to we we or drink either in or out.
